Overview

This is the long-awaited 5th album by Dutch blackened thrashers Occult. Not that their previous album is that long ago, but after starting in 1992 they finally managed to get everything right on this album. ”Elegy for The Weak” is furious, aggressive to the max, well recorded, perfectly executed and to put it short a one way ticket to heaven (or should I say ”hell”?) for any self-respecting thrasher worldwide. Yes, it is that good; not the usual selling crap here. Anyone who thinks killer Thrash only comes from the USA or Sweden, think again and listen to this album. So far Occult was often followed by bad luck. The first album ”Prepare to Meet Thy Doom” suffered from a weak production, the second one (recorded by Harris Johns) was never properly released outside the Benelux, the third one was released by Massacre who lost faith in the band very quickly, and finally album number four, ”Rage to Revenge”, was a nice one, but was never really distributed due to the restrictions of their previous recordlabel. But now Occult has all the cards in one hand, and this time you will notice. Indeed this one is an elegy for the weak… are you strong enough to outlive this blasting Thrash attack? Thrash… or be Thrashed!
